A rogue archetype whose strength is in setting traps. I know the traps in BG2 are quite out of control but that doesn't mean trap mechanics can't be balanced better. There's a joy in crafting your own traps, selecting the right trap for the right enemies, setting them up in advance, and waiting for enemies to step on them. I don't even know if such an archetype exists in PnP, and even if such an archetype will be implemented I wouldn't expect that you get to craft your own traps, but I'm still secretly holding out hope. Just getting to set traps would be fun enough.
Ach! I remember the days of NWN1 looting bag full of traps all the time. Disarm trap. Pick up trap.
Yet isnt oneshotting rogue still a thing?
Rogue two weapon fighting. First turn stealth, move, sneak attack, then bonus action for extra attack at lv 3? Thats a lot of damage on fist turn. If surprised mayby you get extra turn after first attack triggers, so one more attack if you win initiative.
Man I miss throwing daggers. I soloed final boss of c77 with them. And had lots of fun with that flaming returning dagger in pathfinder.
Infinite alchemist fire with no splash. Ranged fire damage like a cantrip. If we were missing a spelcaster from party and had to kill something like a troll or weird flrsh ooze that never dies unless by burning.
